2021-22 DRESS CODE (Pre-K-3) the Board Believes That Proper Etiquette, Social Customs, and Good Grooming Are a Definite Part of the Educational Process 2021-22 DRESS CODE (Pre-K-3) The board believes that proper etiquette, social customs, and good grooming are a definite part of the educational process. It is expected that students wear to school or school functions neat and clean appropriate clothing that meets the standards of this educational environment. It is not the intention of these guidelines to usurp the authority of parents by determining what is appropriate attire and grooming for their children in accordance with the age and grade of students. The school will work with parents in encouraging our young people to assume this responsibility and to execute it sensibly as they mature. The purpose of the home and school working together should be to help students accept and cooperate with the guidelines. In view of this statement, the following acceptable clothing will be in effect in all elementary and intermediate schools: - Undergarments must be covered at all times - Appropriately groomed hair - Garments with appropriate and acceptable graphics - Tops should be appropriate and cover the midriff - Clothing should be appropriately sized and worn appropriately as determined by the administration. - Shorts and skirts of an appropriate length - Appropriate shoes must be worn (NO Heelies) - Garments must be secured at the waist - All males’ shirt tails that extend below the bottom of the zipper must be tucked in. - Head gear only by permission of school administration - Jeans/pants that allow skin to be visible above the knee are not allowed - Leggings/Jeggings will only be allowed if they are worn with a shirt or top that comes to the mid-thigh area - Dresses/skirts and shorts must be within three inches above the knee cap - Earrings should only be worn in the ear Regulations in reference to grooming and dress for special activities such as athletics and physical education will be governed by the immediate person in charge of these activities under the direction of the principal. The individual schools will assume responsibility for ruling on specific items of clothing and general appearance for reasons of safety and health, or for the order, well-being, and general welfare of students. Styles and fads are forever changing; therefore the principal or his/her designee shall reserve the right to alter this code at any time throughout the year. The Board authorizes school administrators to employ appropriate disciplinary procedures to carry out and enforce this policy. These are minimum standards that will be enforced at each school. Schools have the right to set higher standards based on administrative procedures. Certain events require special dress. Teachers will recommend appropriate clothing for field trips, special events or campus dances. The administration may set other dress standards as the need arises. 2021-22 DRESS CODE (4-12) The school believes that proper etiquette, social customs, and good grooming are a definite part of the educational process. It is expected that students wear to school or school functions neat, clean, appropriate clothing that meets the standards of this educational environment. It is not the intention of these guidelines to usurp the authority of parents for determining what is appropriate dress and grooming for their children in accordance with the age and grade of those youngsters. The school will work with parents in encouraging our young people to assume this responsibility and to execute it sensibly as they mature. The purpose of the home and school working together should be to help students accept and cooperate with the guidelines. In view of this statement, the following rules will be in effect in all secondary schools: • Clothing that exposes undergarments are not permitted (Males & Females) • Students are not to wear hats of any kind within the school building unless approved by the school administration. “Hats” should be interpreted literally as “hats” or head-coverings and will include bandanas, caps, sweatbands, visors, and similar hat-like apparel. • Rollers, combs, or picks cannot be worn in the hair. • Students are not to wear T-shirts or other garments or other items with pictures, logos, phrases, decals, patches, emblems, or words printed on them that are obscene or disruptive as determined by school administration. This will include, but not be limited to: nude/semi-nude figures; figures in sexually suggestive postures; logos of alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, or prohibited substances; satanic/occult references; or gang identification. • No item can be worn or displayed that represents a fraternity, sorority, secret or illegal organization. MS code 37-11-39. • Sagging pants are not allowed. Garments will be secured at the waist. Waist is defined as at or above the hip bone. Undergarments, including gym shorts, should not be visible at any time. • Jeans/pants that allow skin to be visible above the knee are not allowed. • Tape is NOT permitted to cover holes in pants. • All males’ shirt tails that extend below the bottom of the zipper must be tucked in. • Students shall wear shoes for foot protection and for hygienic reasons while on school grounds or school transportation. House shoes are not allowed. • Jewelry shall be worn in a way that does not present a safety or health hazard or that depicts weapons of violence, drugs, or alcohol may not be worn. Jewelry in pierced body parts is not allowed EXCEPT in the ears. • Earrings should only be worn in the ear. • Wallet chains or dog collars shall not be permitted. • Pants should not have writing across the buttocks. • No sweatpants or athletic gear. This includes but is not limited to team warm-ups, shorts, and uniforms. • Hoods or “hoodies” on shirts and sweatshirts must not be worn on the head during school hours and must be worn with the hood down resting on the back in the standard position on the school campus at all times. • Clothing should NOT be transparent, excessively tight, or indecent as deemed by the administration. • Dresses/skirts and shorts must be within three inches above the knee cap. • Spandex pants may be worn with a shirt or skirt that comes within three inches above the knee cap. • Strapless tops, tank tops with spaghetti straps, tops with excessively low necklines, and halters are not allowed. Midriffs shall not be exposed. Male students shall not wear sleeveless garments. Female students shall not wear sleeveless garments which do not completely cover undergarments. • Leggings/ jeggings, palazzo pants, and tights may only be worn with a shirt or blouse that comes to the mid-thigh area. Regulations in reference to grooming and dress for special activities such as athletics, fine arts, and drill team will be governed by the immediate person in charge of these activities under the direction of the principal. Appropriateness and moderation in all things, concern for the health and safety of the students, and the avoidance of distractions to the educational process are the guiding principles of the student dress code. Styles and fads are constantly changing and cannot possibly be covered by specific rules and regulations. The task of evaluating what is proper in the way of dress and grooming is highly controversial, and opinions among people vary. The individual schools will assume responsibility for ruling on specific items of clothing and general appearance for reasons of safety and health, or for the order, well-being, and general welfare of students. Styles and fads are forever changing, therefore the principal or his/her designee shall reserve the right to alter this code at any time throughout the year. The Board authorizes school administrators to employ appropriate disciplinary procedures to carry out and enforce this policy. These are minimum standards that will be enforced at each school. Schools have the right to set higher standards based on administrative procedures. Certain events require special dress. The administration/teachers may set other dress standards as the need arises and students who do not follow this dress code will be subject to discipline. .

Early 1850 bodices had a Basque opening over a che- misette, the bodice continued to be very close fitting, the waist sharp and the shoulder less slanted, during the 1850s to 1866. During the 1850s the dresses were cut without a waist seam and during the 1860s the round waist was raised to some extent. The decade of the 1870s is one of the most intricate era of women’s fashion. The style of the early 1870s relied on the renewal of the polonaise, strained on the back, gath- ered and puffed up into an detailed arrangement at the rear, above a sustaining bustle, to somewhat broaden at the wrist.

They were incredibly supportive of that decision and Building really understanding of it, and that was also very rare.” “We are delighted to invest in Altuzarra to ac- company the development of this promising fash- ion house,” said Alexis Babeau, managing director, Kering Luxury division.

These laid Vidyapith, Jaipur, Rajasthan, the foundation for brocades in India circa 10th - 11th century. Traditionally royalties bought brocades for India their wardrobe and for rewarding their courtiers on ceremonies. People of different communities in Gujarat draped the saris and used pallus and borders to adorn their odhani. Over the centuries, the Vishu Arora demand for this fabric has declined due to the changing lifestyles and requirements of consumers. Associate Professor, NIFT Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India Nowadays, the elite wear kinkhab only on special occasions or buy it as a souvenir. With the changing times, the brocades have witnessed a number of transformations. This paper focuses on the conventional brocades and contemporizing the end use of these brocades to meet the requirements of the customers. As discussed in present times the demand for these brocades has declined so, over the years its production got restricted to one household only.
